SETTING AND ADJUSTING MAESTRO (TRANCE, REIGN) SAG (air shock)
1. Pump the main air chamber to a psi (pounds per square inch) equivalent to rider’s body
weight .
2. Push the rubber O-ring that is around the shock’s shaft all the way against the base of shaft
(closest to shock body).
3. Position your bicycle next to a wall so that you can sit on the bike with both feet on the pedals
while steadying yourself with one arm. Gently sit on the saddle without bouncing. Dismount
gently and look at how far the O-ring has moved down the shaft. Measure distance O-ring has
moved (figure 6).
4. Add or remove air until desired shock movement is obtained. Refer to the Sag Recommenda-
tion Guide below for proper sag measurements.
Maestro Sag Recommendations:
Trance: 3/8” (9mm) O-ring movement
Reign: 1/2” (12mm) O-ring movement
